PART 1: Celeste went home Saturday so we decided to do our long run Friday night around 6 pm. The weather was on and off saying t-storms/clear with chances between 40 and 100%. About 3 miles in, the sirens went off...but we ignored them. Then they went off again. We had decided to do a loop to stay close to campus in case of danger but the sky had some blue patches. We finished our first lap (about 5.6 miles) and decided to keep going, suddenly the temperature dropped and we saw some dark clouds. We turned around but managed to get soaked. Then came the hail. We only had it between Chemistry and Ballentine (non-IU people, the sprint between the 2 buildings takes about 8 seconds) but it was rough. We made it inside okay.
Total Milage: 6.5 miles
PART 2: We finished out our run Saturday morning at 6:30 AM. We did the usual out and back on the b-line trail. I hope I don't get sick of that run, it's so nice :)
Total Milage 10.5 miles
(17 in total!)
I said I wasn't gonna run today but Craig and I ended up doing 7.5 at 8:57 pace! I'm tired!!
In case you're wondering how far out this b-line/rail trail/clear creek trail line goes here is a map of a recent 15 miler:
I never realized that the trail curved until right now!
and last, I ran 40.5 miles this week, my highest mileage week...ever!
